Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

“I remember that the National University is one of the top five universities in architectural design," Luca recalled. Then, the
expression on her face changed.
Only after she finished saying that did she realize what she had said.
Luca turned to look at Luke. He was calm, and he was not as surprised as she thought.
Normally, a 'foreigner' like her should not know so much about the local universities.
She thought it was unbelievable when there was no surprised expression on Luke's face.
Brian's face reddened as he was embarrassed to hear Luca complimenting his university. He shook his head and replied, "Even
though it's in the top five, the faculty of architecture in our college is incomparable to Mr. Crawford's college. I'm planning to sit for
the entrance exam for that college and see if I can take my master's there in my fourth year."
Luca withdrew her gaze. She smiled and replied, "Good luck to you."
Brian nodded. Then, he changed the subject of the conversation, "Ms. Craw, did you graduate from university with a degree in
architecture?"
Luca should be nodding her head, but she graduated with a degree in biopharmaceutics in the information she submitted to
Luke.
Luca shook her head and answered, "No."
"I thought you were studying architecture. You looked like you didn't have a problem with it when you were working together with
Mr. Crawford," said Brian.
"Those are the basics. I studied some subjects related to architecture when I was in university." Luca had no choice but to bite
the bullet and lie to him.
Luke took a sip of the tea and gave a faint smile. Luca was bad at lying.
Luke could even feel Luca had reached her limits lying to someone when he sat beside her. Luca had no choice but to keep on
lying if he did not say anything.
Luca would not be able to hold on any longer.

"I see. Ms. Craw, you're pretty impressive too." Brian began to admire Luca too.
Sure enough, the people around Luke were as outstanding as he was.
Brian told himself that he had to put in more effort too.
Although Austin could not be bothered to listen to their conversation, he felt like he could not fit in. Hence, he asked, "Ms. Craw,
what did you study in college?"
Luca was startled for a moment. She could not help but wonder how much longer they were going to talk about this.
“I studied biopharmaceutics, and I studied abroad." Luca had no choice but to answer him. Then, she turned to look at Luke.
Luke was still drinking his tea. There seemed to be a slight curve on the corner of his lips.
Was Luke happy?
Luca tried to think about what made Luke happy when they were talking to each other.
She pondered for a moment and the interesting part of their conversation was Brian complimenting the faculty of architecture of
his university.
However, Luke was not someone who would be happy to receive compliments about his university.
Many people complimented him on the regular, so he would not be happy just to hear someone compleminting his university.
Hence, what amused Luke so much that made him smile?
Austin began to doubt her when he heard that she studied biopharmaceutics abroad.
Would someone who graduated abroad come back to work for Luke?
Besides, it was something completely different from her profession.
There must be something going on between the two of them. After all, Austin noticed that the family name of Luke's wife was
Rayne when he was looking up Luke's information, while the family name of the woman in front of him was Craw.
Austin was secretly excited as though he had found out something shocking.

The waitress served their dishes on the table.
"Let's eat. We have a lot of work to do in the afternoon." Luke's words saved Luca from the awkward situation.
Brian nodded and had lunch with them.
Luke only ate the dish placed in front of him as he was unfamiliar with the two boys sitting in front of him. It seemed like they
were unaware of using the serving spoon either.
Luca noticed that, but the two boys in front of them were inexperienced too. She was too embarrassed to remind them.
She called the waitress and ordered a set meal.
It did not take long for the waitress to serve the meal. Luca looked at the meal set and frowned, "Why did they add the cilantro..."
Brian was not sure about the situation. He looked at her set meal and said, "Ms. Craw, just take the cilantro away if you don't eat
it."
"But the smell of the cilantro will remain in the dish. It's a waste if no one eats it. Mr. Crawford, why don't you eat some?" Luca
placed the set meal in front of Luke.
"Okay." Luke knew what Luca meant and did not reject her offer.
Even though Luke only helped him with the food in front of him, the two boys would help themselves with the food too. Luca
noticed that, and that was why she deliberately ordered another set meal and found an excuse for him.
Luca was as attentive as before.
After lunch, the four of them returned to the ancestral hall.
The village chief stood in the ancestral hall and asked with confusion, “Where did you go?"
“Chief, we went out for lunch just now," said Brian.
“You're already eaten? I brought lunch for you." The village chief shook his head. Luke came here to help them without charging
them. That was why he asked his wife to prepare more when she was preparing lunch.
“I've eaten," said Luke. He headed to the machine and began to work.

“What about these..." The village chief looked at the lunch boxes and said helplessly.
“Chief, you can take them back," replied Brian. He sat down and continued to arrange the drawings.
“Okay. It's better than wasting them. I'll leave you to work." The village chief picked up the lunchboxes and headed out.
Austin said disdainfully, "I didn't expect the chief to prepare lunch for us when he has always been tightfisted."
“Chief is just trying to save money," replied Brian as he shook his head. Austin truly had a sharp tongue.
Austin would be losing out if he behaved like that after he came out to work.
Austin did not say anything. He thought Brian said so just to please the village chief.
The rest needed to have a good relationship with the village chief, but he did not need that.
Austin thought he would be leaving X City sooner or later. He would not have anything to do with X City when the time came.
Luca did not say anything when she heard the conversation between the two young boys. She continued to assist Luke.
Their work went smoothly as two people were there to help them. They thought they would be working until midnight. However,
they completed their work and were done taking all the measurements by seven in the evening.
Now, Luke had to draw the designs himself.
Brian watched Luke keep the tools back in his toolbox, and he asked excitedly, “Mr. Crawford, do you mind taking me along with
you when you're designing?"
Luke paused for a moment. He shook his head and said, “I'm going back to A City in two days."
What he meant was that even though he took Brian along with him, he would not be able to participate in the whole process.
That was why there was no need to do so.
Brian was disappointed when he heard that. However, his college was in X City, and the holidays were almost over. There was
no way he could head to A City.
"Okay, Mr. Crawford. I'm looking forward to seeing your design," Brian smiled and replied.

Luke left there with Luca after he packed his stuff.
Austin blew a whistle and glanced at Brian, who was disappointed and mocked, “Even if he were staying in X City, he wouldn't
ask you to go along with him. Just give up."
"How do you know that?" Brian rolled his eyes at Austin.
The two of them were not that close. If it were not for the task this time, Brian could not be bothered to talk to Austin for another
second.
